Corvus Energy delights in to introduce that Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI) of Tokyo, Japan has actually bought the initial industrial system of a brand-new Corvus Energy high-density lithium-ion capacitor power storage space system (ESS).
Branded Blue Marlin, the item utilizes lithium-ion capacitor (LiC) cells that securely maintain really high charge/discharge prices of 550 C height and also 200 C continual, allowing both power regain and also quick discharge for high-power lots handling. It can provide past a million cycles with very little ability loss.
Corvus Energy integrated the LiC innovation right into the maritime-specific Blue Marlin item under an item growth arrangement with KHI, initially introduced in September 2019.

“Corvus Energy has been an outstanding development partner. They have demonstrated high standards in energy storage engineering and marine market expertise throughout this project. Their know-how around thermal management inside battery modules is unmatched and critical to ensuring safe and reliable operation,” claims Takeshi Ohata, Managing Executive Officer of Kawasaki Heavy Industries.
“This project demonstrates that LiC technology is well-suited to maritime and offshore energy recapture applications,” claims Sean Puchalski, EVP Strategy & & Business Planning atCorvus Energy “It provides the best of both worlds—current-handling performance nearing a supercapacitor with improved energy density. When space is at a premium and high power is required for short amounts of time, the Corvus Energy Blue Marlin product is a fantastic solution.”
Corvus Energy will certainly market the Blue Marlin ESS generally in the Offshore sector for applications with brief power variations at a really high power. With its light-weight, ruggedized and also high power-density layout, Blue Marlin gives substantial advantages in such applications. For instance, the capacity for performance renovation with power regain is considerable for a number of these procedures, consisting of heave settlement, piercing drawworks, haul decreasing, and also comparable high-power applications. Further, it can manage optimals in the power need account. For exploration gears and also vessels with heave settlement systems, this can suggest that or even more diesel generators formerly utilized to manage unexpected variants in power can be switched off.
“The entire oil and gas industry increasingly commit to invest in green technology to reduce the carbon footprint of their operations,” claims Geir Bj ørkeli, Chief Executive Officer ofCorvus Energy “We are pleased that by adding the Blue Marlin, we now offer a complete portfolio to improve energy efficiency in offshore vessel operations as well as rig topside applications.”
As the leading supplier of power storage space systems (ESS) for maritime applications, Corvus Energy gives battery power to even more crossbreed or zero-emission vessels than all various other carriers of power storage space systems integrated. Corvus Energy supplies an extensive and also cutting-edge profile of ESS options and also has unparalleled experience from 300+ tasks, amounting to over 250 MWh and also 2,5 million operating hrs.
